    The main attraction is the first Boeing 787, which has actually been in-flight service.
    TeamLab, the creative group gaining a lot of attention around the world, has put together interactive digital exhibits that are available in a paid area of the theme park.

    Once you enter the facility, head to the first-floor ticket counter and take care of admission.
    You can reserve tickets beforehand and gain access to the park without standing in line, if you want to save yourself some time.

    You can enter the cockpit on the Plane Tours.

    Of the many digital exhibits available, you have to see the “Fly with 787 Dreamliner” show.
    It incorporates the 787 and theme park into a dazzling display of images and sounds.
    If you view it from the fourth-floor Observation Space, then the distinction between the building’s walls and the floor disappears, giving the sensation that you’re actually flying with the airplane.

    ― Beecher’s Handmade Cheese

    Order the Mac & Cheese

    Order the Mac & Cheese

    Beecher’s Handmade Cheese has its main branch in Seattle’s famous Pike Place Market, and it’s a wildly popular cheese shop.
    Order the Mac & Cheese for piping hot macaroni covered in creamy, flavorful cheese.
    The cheese’s rich and slightly salty taste makes it almost criminally delicious.
    The main location in Seattle is usually swamped with visitors, but this hideaway location lets you order right away.
    The gooey Grilled Cheese Sandwich is also highly recommended.

    This is their first location in Japan, and among the over 2,000 craft breweries along America’s West Coast, it’s one of the most popular.

    They offer an impressive menu with favorites like steaks and clam chowder.

    Handmade bagel shop

    Handmade bagel shop

    This is a handmade bagel shop born in Seattle.
    Since the bagels are made in a high-temperature oven, the outside is crispy, while the inside is still chewy and moist.
    They’ve got 13 spread options ranging from full and hearty to sweet and light.
    You can choose whichever suits your bagel or your mood the best.
    Sometimes it’s nice to just wonder over the tasty possibilities.
